Good Old Favourites #7

Happy New Year, foodies. If you're anything like me, you need a little bit of inspiration about now to eat healthily.

Those festive season overloads have settled into a carb addiction that you feed daily with more carbs and sugar. This may help...a good old favourite recipe of mine, that is healthy and well loved by the whole family.

Enjoy.
